-I can't believe… -I can't believe I'm here.
I, um… I, um…
Wow. I'm… really glad you're home… and that you picked up the phone.
-Me too. -[both chuckle softly]
Um…
I also, like… uh…
I am also really sorry.
Okay. Thank you.
Yeah.
Just to be clear, are you sorry about getting engaged to your ex-boyfriend
or hanging up on me when he was right behind you
or just breaking my heart?
Jesus Christ. Um…
D? All of the above?
I'm sorry, Mavis.
It's just, 48 hours ago,
I thought that I'd never see you again. I thought we were over.
Yeah, but Luca, the thought of never seeing you again
is why I had to get on that plane and be here.
You're really important to me.
We can figure this out.
And I wanna see your world.
-Mm. -So what all we do in Rome?
Do we… go to the opera?
Or, uh… make focaccia?
Or, I don't know, anything that ends in "uh?" What we do?
Well, how long are you here for?
Oh… right.
I sure as shit just showed the fuck up, huh?
[both chuckle]
I'm here for a week. So, like, six more days. Is that okay?
Yeah, great.
I would love to show you around today,
but I have a refugee family that I'm working with,
and I'm so close to getting their paper secured.
Oh, okay.
I could try and reschedule.
They might be deported and not allowed to come back to Italy.
Oh my God, Luca, stop.
You gotta… you gotta save that family.
They need a home in Italy. It's beautiful here.
I'm fine. I could just… take care of myself today
and, I don't know,
roam around Rome.
Oh. That's clever.
That was very clever.
[phone ringing]
[grunts]
Hey, Mave.
[Mavis] Hey, Khalil! I'm in another country!
But you knew that already. How you doing?
Uh… I'm doing all right.
All right, um… I bought a weighted blanket. That helps.
I wish I was there to give you a hug, friend, and take you to Red Rooster.
Have you talked to India at all?
I mean, a little bit when I dropped Cooper's skates off.
Honestly, it felt like two heartbreaks.
Khalil, you had a impact on him, okay? And India.
And shit, probably triflin'-ass Henry too.
Well… [grunts]
…it is what it is.
So I see you didn't sleep in your bonnet last night.
What's good with you?
Yay! My turn!
Uh! Khalil! It's so good!
It's so good being here. It's so good seeing Luca.
And I, um…
I said everything I wanted to say and how I wanted to say it.
And I'm so glad when I knocked on his door, he let me in.
And then I let him knock on my door,
and I let him in. You know what I'm saying?
Yes, I know what you sayin'. Please stop saying it.
We had sex.
He put his… He put his Italian baguette
in my focaccia,
and we made some olive oil.
-Gross. -[laughing]
Please stop. I know. Yes, I know.
So what? It seems like… you and Luca are, like, what, good good now?
I mean, I hurt him, right? So he's, like, still processing.
But, um… I don't know. I just want him to know that I'm committed
to making this long-distance relationship work,
and I really just… hmm…
wish there was a way I could show him.
I mean, all right.
Well, maybe you… I don't know.
Oh my God! I can cook him, like, a really nice meal and, um…
just kind of show him how amazing life could be with the two of us.
You know what I mean? Uh! Khalil, you're the best.
Hey, glad I could help.
I love you, brother.
Love you too, Mave.
-All right, bye. -Night.
[soulful Italian R&B music playing]
Ooh, if you like Emily in Paris,
then you're gonna love Mavis in Rome, bitch!
Whoo!
[app, in Italian] The bathroom, please.
-[mellow song playing] -[in Italian] The… The bathroom.
The bathroom, please.
Por favor? Heh… [splutters]
[app] Thank you.
Grat-zee? Grazie. Grazie! Yahtzee!
[app] You're welcome.
Preggo? Prego. Prego?
[in English] Oh my God, is that where that tomato sauce comes from?
It's like, you're welcome for this watery-ass grocery-store tomato sauce.
Oh my God. The more you fucking know, bitch.
Prego! Prego.
Why is this so small?
You know what? I want some more.
No, girl. You don't need no more.
This is enough. This is how people do it in Italy.
Mm-mm-mm!
Damn! This is so good!
What you lookin' at, moss mouth? Why you judgin' me?
You actually remind me of my mom, just like,
very kind eyes behind stone, so… All right, I'm gonna enjoy my gelato.
Don't look at me like that, bitch. Come on now.
[song continues, lyrics in Italian]
Oh my God!
It's… What? Does anyone…
Mr. Dua Lipa, how do you say that statue got dong?
[liquid splashing]
Ah!
Okay. That was refreshing.
[romantic Italian music playing]
Ooh.
[gasps]
Bellissima.
Ooh. Okay, let's see what we got.
[lyrics in Italian]
Mmm! Mm!
Sir, scusi. Um…
Why are the chickens so small?
Signora, that is the size they usually are.
Okay, can I just, um… get one?
-Por favore? -Okay.
[Mavis] Yeah!
I'm gonna cook it for dinner tonight for my boyfriend.
Well, he's not my boyfriend yet,
but, you know, we definitely have, like, that thing.
It's really giving, like, Brown reboot of The Notebook,
but, like, without the dementia
and the letters 'cause obviously we have the Internet and such, but… Oh!
I don't wanna ruin it for you if you haven't seen it 'cause it's…
It's on Broadway now. It's a good movie,
but, you know, it just makes you wanna be with the one, you know?
'Cause when you know, you know. You know?
Capisce?
The chicken is done.
And so am I.
Okay.
Thought we were just… bonding, you know, havin' a little moment in the flea market.
[romantic song in Italian continues]
Hey! Mortacci tua!
Cazzo.
[in Italian] So let me get this straight. They were planning on getting married?
Yes, they were actually engaged. She says she regrets it.
I understand, but that's not the point.
How are you feeling about all this?
I'd rather not talk about it.
Okay.
How could she go back to him?
How could she even consider marrying him?
-I don't want to think about it. -Fine, but--
How can I not think about it?
I mean, she was engaged to someone else.
Yeah. I get it.
But it's also amazing to have her here.
She's like a star that just fell from the sky and landed in my bed.
A star fallen from the sky that landed in your bed?
Now you're speaking in poetry?
So you clearly got laid.
I just mean she's bright, glowing and beautiful,
but… I might get burned.
Ah.
So the sex was great?
-Listen, I'm not telling you, okay? -What a gentleman.
Do you know anyone who can fix a shower?
A shower?
[soft rhythmic music playing]
Honey, you're home!
It's very exciting.
It's giving, like, Destiny's Child "Cater 2 U,"
and I love that moment for us.
Wow.
It's so sweet you did all this.
-Yeah. -What else did you do today?
Well, the market was so beautiful and so fun,
and the colors were so vibrant, and the people were so nice.
And I even ran into an American tourist outside the Colosseum,
and I asked her how it was inside, and she just said, "Meh,"
and I was like, "Meh?" and she's like, "Yeah, it was just meh, girl."
"There was no baked chicken, no jousting, no show. It was under construction."
I'm like, "What?"
I cannot believe this basic bitch came from America to Rome,
and she thought the Colosseum was like a Renaissance fair?
We have a saying here in Italy.
-Small-minded people… -Mm-hmm.
…will always live in a small world.
-Mm. -And I know that's not you.
-Boy. -[knock on door]
-Oh, are you expecting someone? -No.
[Mavis] Hmm!
[in Italian] Hey, Gabri, what are you doing here?
[Gabri] You haven't answered any of my texts.
[in English] Oh, wow. I see you have a guest.
[Luca] Yeah.
[in Italian] Why is that American bitch who broke your heart here?
Be nice, Gabri.
[in English] Gabriella, this is Mavis. Mavis, this is my sister Gabriella.
Hi, Gabriella! Hello!
[Mavis, enthusiastically] Mwah! Mwah! [chuckles]
So nice to finally meet you. I'm so sorry I didn't recognize you.
Yes, I'm very surprised to see you.
My brother didn't tell me you were here, and he tells me everything.
[Mavis] Oh!
Tells you everything. Everything.
And that's good that you guys talk to each other
because I don't talk to my brother.
LOL. I'm the only child. That'd be weird.
Um… Good-uh.
G-g-g-g-g-good.
Gag. You are Gucci with that. You know what I mean?
That means very good in America, but you probably… I don't know what you--
Thanks for stopping by. I'll walk you out.
Yep, so nice to meet you!
Yeah.
[Luca] Thank you. Thank you for coming.
[in Italian] Thank you for coming. We'll discuss this later.
-[Gabri] Yeah, sure, later. -[Luca] Why are you always like this?
[Gabri] You told me it was over.
[Luca] Yeah, it was over. I thought it was over.
But now she's here, and we're just enjoying each other's company.
Be smart. You told me she hurt you just two days ago.
Yes, she did hurt me. All right. I'm not denying that.
I know you're protective…
I have to be protective,
or you'll spend the rest of your life with some other idiot
who cheated on you the minute you turned your back.
Don't marry another Isabella.
[Luca] I have to go.
[in English] She worked really hard on this dinner, and I want to enjoy it!
I hope she cooks as well as she lies
because this is all a distraction
from the fact that you can't really trust her.
[funky Italian electronic music playing]
[lyrics in Italian]
Yeah, I mean, Rome is beautiful. The weather's amazing.
The food's amazing. Check your texts.
What?
Why is she talkin' about people she don't know?
She don't know you. You don't know that other person.
Damn, I hate people's sisters!
The Colosseum? Ooh, baby!
It is realer than Meryl Streep's face, and you know that's the real real.
Wait, "Luca is nothing like Jacque. I am nothing like the ex."
"Need Luca to know…"
Sis, if he don't know, he don't know!
Damn! You could lead a horse to water and fuck him,
but he's gotta make up his own mind.
Yeah, okay, I really don't think that's how the saying goes,
but thank you for your support. Yeah.
Baby, listen, you are too cute, too beautiful,
too special to be putting up with any of this bullshit.
And if that motherfucker can't see it, then guess what?
That motherfucker doesn't deserve you, honey,
and you can best believe I got enough sky miles
to be there in eight hours. Do you hear me?
Well, I love you, and I miss you,
and I really wish you were in Rome with me right now.
That'd be, like, really fun.
Okay, bye.
-Um… Hey. -Hey.
That was Marley.
Oh. Okay. I wasn't wondering.
Okay.
How did you sleep?
Not too well.
I don't know. I just…
I really want it to work out.
I do too.
Yesterday was a… a little stressful.
Yeah, it was very stressful.
But we still have today.
-And we still have each other. -Don't you have to go to work?
Uh… I am, as you Americans say… playing hooky.
What?
That's cute.
Forget about everyone else. Let's just have fun today.
-You and me. -Yeah, I wanna have fun.
[romantic Italian music playing]
This place is, like, the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
Hmm… Yes, but I think that
you are the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
I feel crazy.
This city is… making me feel things I've never felt before.
You make me feel things I've never felt before.
Okay, boy.
Okay, we have a pretty good patter going on here,
and I'm about to say something,
and you don't have to say it because I just said it…
I love you, Mavis.
I love you too.
So much.
[romantic Italian music swells]
What do we do now? Like…
Are we, like, swimming in the water? What are we doing?
Um…
Let's make a wish.
Yeah. Yeah. It's a fountain. Make a wish.
Ah! [speaks Italian]
[bride shouting in Italian]
[shouting in Italian]
[speaking Italian]
Did my coin hit her?
Did it hit you? You know what?
That's very lucky if my coin hit you.
It's luckier than a pigeon shitting on you. Don't you think?
-I think we have to go. -Congratulations.

Like, we could really make this work.
I mean, I don't know, we definitely have to, like, get miles, you know,
to see each other about, like, I don't know, every five or six weeks.
Also, like, we should work when we see each other
because then we can, like, write the trips off, and…
You know what? There's this, like, amazing podcast
about long-distance relationships, and they had the best advice.
We should actually be on that podcast. Right?

I've missed you so much.
You're making me really nervous right now. Okay? Just… just say what you have to say.
-Okay? Just say it. -I don't know how to say it.
I've been pushing down this feeling,
but I have to tell you because I don't think I can not tell you.
I'm still not over it.
I don't know how to be.
